She was really great about it... she said she thought I would be back... but my stylist wasn't a total stranger... she comes into the restaurant where I work frequently and had always told all of us that work at the little restaurant I work at to come to her if we wanted a haircut...
I am really happy!... I'll post pics later when my boyfriend is here to take them...

If you'd said, "This isn't as short as I wanted" then maybe you should get it cut again for free. If the stylist doesn't do what you agreed on, and you guys agree on that at the end of the cut, there's a case.
Sometimes a stylist will say, "If you still want it shorter in a few days, come back in and I'll do it for free." This isn't required. It's her being very nice. Remember, this is her job. Every hour she spends with a client is an hour she's earning money.
Call her. Be nice. Be polite. You catch flies with honey. Tell her your feelings about the cut. Compliment her. Stylists like that. Tell her it isn't as short as you want it. She may offer to cut it again. If not, ask her if she would. She's probably booked up. Offer to come in with it washed because you understand she's squeezing you in. Bring money for another cut. Maybe she'll offer it at no charge. Maybe not. Don't expect it. It is definitely not required.

Congrats on your new short hairstyle!
It is exciting getting a new hairstyle isn't it.
I am doing just the opposite of you. After years of wearing my hair
short, I am growing it long again and it is now well past my shoulders.
In regards to the length of your haircut, Anne is right, it was not a mistake the
beautician made, but instead you just decided you want a shorter
hairstyle.
I would call her and tell her you just want an inch trimmed off, not a
whole new style, and see if she will go for that. She might do it for
free just to have you as a possible regular customer in the future. It
is good customer relations for her.
If she doesn't want to do it for free, she will most likely just charge you for a trim, and not for a full expensive hairstyle.
It seems you had a good day at the beauty salon, and I am sure you look adorable in your fashionable new short hairstyle!.
Good luck lady!

Since it's a matter of you changing your mind and not a mistake she made, I'm not sure it would be fair to ask her to give you another haircut for free.

Oddly enough I never expected you to shy away from the cut.
Regaring your dilemna - yes give the salon a call and ask. They shouldn't be offended and providing they have the time in the next couple of days they should accomodate you you for that extra inch you want to cut. It shouldn't be too onerous if you've gone for a blunt cut.

I did gt it cut!! I will post pics tomorrow... but I have a question that I posted on the hair politics thread... but I'll put it here too...
I got a pretty signifacant hair cut today, and the stylist was great. She made sure we were on the same page, and that I liked what she was doing at various points in the haircut, ect.
After cutting my hair, she asked if I liked the length before styling it... and I hesitated, because it was a little bit longer than the picture I gave her, and the picture Ihad in my head... which I understand, because I am sure she didn't want to cut my (formerly) really long hair too short.
So when she asked if I'd like it shorter, I said no...
But now, after wearing my hair this evening, I really wish it was that inch shorter. Partially for how it would look , and partially because it is brushing my shoulders, and that annoys me, and it wouldn't if it were a little bit shorter.
Would it be uncouth if I called the salon tomorrow and asked if she had time to trim it up? Would I need to pay again? Is it ok to offer to come in with my hair washed and combed out to make it easier?
I just don't know the nicer salon rules!! A friend told me it was ok to go back tomorrow and I shouldn't be charged... but I want to make sure!
Advice? Opinions... especially from hairdressers... but any input is welcome!

I leave in 20 mintues..... some last minute encouragement?
So I don't chicken out in the chair and pay 75$ for a non-haircut that I could have gotten for 10$?
